Silver coins in Maine

Essay topics:

Silver coins in Maine

The reading and the lecture are both about the presence of coins in Maine of North America. The author of the reading feels that coins found in Maine are not real while the lecturer opposes the idea of the writer due to some rational reasons.

To begin with, the writer argues that the distance from Maine to the place where Norse settled down is too far so there is no link with the Norse. This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that people living in Maine came to Norse’s place and obtained both objects and coins back to their home so it has the relationship between people living in Maine and Norse’ coins.

Secondly, the passage suggests there are no coins found in North America. The article mentions that silver coins are not Norse’s belongings which were brought to North America during their settlement. The professor, however, rebuts this by mentioning that some coins still existed in Maine but were not found elsewhere in Norse’s because they brought coins with them and backed it up in the EU. That is the reason why there are no other coins found.

Finally, the author posits that there is no use for European coins. It is stated that coins are useless to Norse while it is still popular in Europe and native North Americans do not use silver coins as money. In contrast, the lecturer’s position is that the native attracted by the beauty and interest of silver coins so they could have used them as jewelry or for trading.
